turboIP

Comtech EF Data’s turboIP is a TCP/IP Performance Enhancement Proxy (PEP) for satellite communications networks. This offering can be deployed in both new and existing networks to greatly improve performance. Below is a summary of the key features provided by turboIP and the benefits it provides.

Features

•  Provides standards-based TCP/IP performance enhancement
•  Includes easyConnect™ Intelligent Networking
•  Provides congestion control
•  Supports Selective Negative Acknowledgments (SNACKs)
•  Offers rate pacing
•  Enables quick start
•  Provides window scaling
•  Interoperates with existing TCP networks

Benefits

•  Restores network efficiency and overcomes the inherent limitations of
   TCP/IP traffic on impaired links
•  Overcomes deficiencies existing in current transport layer protocols
•  Allows turboIP to be easily added to existing networks without impacting
   existing enterprise
•  Reduces complexity of designing a new network
•  Prevents unnecessary activation of congestion controls or reductions in
   transmission rates
•  Allows for quicker recovery and better bandwidth utilization in environments
    with high amounts of damaged and lost packets
•  Provides congestion control for the satellite channel by metering out
    bursty traffic
•  Eliminates the inefficiencies of the TCP slow start algorithm
•  Improves link efficiency
•  Provides superior throughput
•  Enables implementation on a node-by-node basis for simplified
   deployment
•  Eliminates need for network-wide installation and/or upgrade
